S. Office of Education. The nine models were developed in 1968 as a result of the Office of Education's recognition of the need for improvement in elementary teacher education. The models were prepared under the title, "Comprehensive Undergraduate and Inservice Teacher Education Program for Elementary Teachers,"by seven universities, a consortium, and a regional educational laboratory. The following citations, as prepared and presented by the Bureau of Research, have been organized into four topics: I. "The Nature and Training of Teachers: A Bibliography for Teacher Education." II. "Education and Educational Practices: A Bibliography for Teacher Education." III. "Educational Psychology: A Bibliography for Teacher Education." IV. "Educational Technology: A Bibliography for Teacher Echication." This bibliography was made possible by the many persons who developed the nine models and by James Schaefer Jr., student assistant, Bureau of Research, who compiled the more than 1,500 entries. The ERIC Clearinghouse on Teacher Education provided sme technical assistance in this effort. The nine models now are available through the ERIC system in either hard copy or microfiche. They may be ordered from: EDRS, The National Cash Register Company, 4936 Fairmont Avenue, Bethesda, Maryland 20014. The reports have also been reprinted with a honeycomb binding by the Government Printing Office (GPO) and may be ordered from:The Superintendent of Documents, U. S. Government Printing Office, Washington, D. C. 20402. The reports must be ordered by number. Any requests without order numbers will be returned. Abstracts of the nine models may be found in Research in Education, the ERIC abstract journal, under the cited "ED" numbers.

  • Transfer of Learning Has Been One of the Most Enduring Issues for Scholars, Researchers, and Teachers
    Foreword The Educational Psychology Series is adding a new dimension to its col­ lection of edited volumes. Robert Haskell has authored an exciting new book that will appeal to the educator, to the researcher, and to anyone concerned with how we as human beings cope and adjust to our world. Transfer of Learn­ ing-. Cognition, Instruction, and Reasoning is a creative work with unlimited poten­ tial for impacting the way we view the learning process. Through a unique combination of academic scholarship and an engaging writing style, Robert has written a book that not only challenges current learning theory, but is in­ tuitively appealing to the casual observer of human behavior. Within psychology and education, transfer of learning has been one of the most enduring issues for scholars, researchers, and teachers. Though some academicians have suggested that "transfer is dead," Haskell has provided a frame of reference for a reconstruction of our view of transfer. This exciting new perspective of the transfer process will have an impact, similar to that of Howard Gardner's book Multiple Intelligences, on educational practices in the classroom. Gary D. Phue Series Editor xi Introduction When we have lived any time, and have been accustomed to the uniformity of nature, we acquire a general habit, by which we always transfer the known to the unknown, and conceive the latter to resemble the former. 1 —DAVID HUME, AM Essay Concerning Human Understanding Psychology's first general law should, I suggest, be a law of generalization. —ROGER N. SHEPARD2 Transfer of learning is our use of past learning when learning something new and the application of that learning to both similar and new situations.

  • Some Lessons Learned About Teaching, Research, and Academic Disputation
    Some Lessons Learned About teachers after WWII.) I began to read over Teaching, Research, and the next months, fairly quickly beginning to Academic Disputation “get it.” Since my learning at home was accelerating, my parents spoke about my Frederick Erickson situation to the superintendent of schools, whom they knew. He agreed to examine me before school began in the fall. And if I was able to read, I would be allowed to go on to second grade. On a hot day in August I went to his office, he handed me the last of the first grade “Dick and Jane” basal readers, and I read it aloud to him, fluently. Two weeks later I matriculated in second grade and soon became an avid reader, in a trajectory that has continued ever since. My mother was a children’s librarian. My father was a small town businessmen. They were both college graduates, members of local community social networks through which they were acquainted with the school superintendent. And they were White. In addition, my mother possessed very well-developed literacy skills, with a number of years’ I started out in the bottom reading group, professional experience in supporting and so I know what that feels like.

  • Educational Psychology
    Educational psychology From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Educational psychology is the study of how humans learn in educational settings, the effectiveness of educational interventions, the psychology of teaching, and the social psychology of schools asorganizations. Educational psychology is concerned with how students learn and develop, often focusing on subgroups such as gifted children and those subject to specific disabilities. Researchers and theorists are likely to be identified in the US and Canada as educational psychologists, whereas practitioners in schools or school-related settings are identified as school psychologists. This distinction is however not made in the UK, where the generic term for practitioners is "educational psychologist." Educational psychology can in part be understood through its relationship with other disciplines. It is informed primarily by psychology, bearing a relationship to that discipline analogous to the relationship between medicine and biology. Educational psychology in turn informs a wide range of specialities within educational studies, including instructional design, educational technology, curriculum development,organizational learning, special education and classroom management. Educational psychology both draws from and contributes to cognitive science and the learning sciences. In universities, departments of educational psychology are usually housed within faculties of education, possibly accounting for the lack of representation of educational psychology content in introductory psychology textbooks.[1] To understand the characteristics of learners in childhood,adolescence, adulthood, and old age, educational psychology develops and applies theories of human development. Often represented as stages through which people pass as they mature, developmental theories describe changes in mental abilities (cognition), social roles, moral reasoning, and beliefs about the nature of knowledge.

The National Academy of Education advances high quality education research and its use in policy formation and practice. Founded in 1965, the Academy consists of U.S. members and foreign associates who are elected on the basis of outstanding scholarship related to education. Since its establishment, the Academy has undertaken research studies that address pressing issues in education, which are typically conducted by members and other scholars with relevant expertise. In addition, the Academy sponsors professional development fellowship programs that contribute to the preparation of the next generation of scholars. Foreword Fifty years ago American education changed. Congress enacted crit- ical and wide-reaching federal laws, the executive branch demanded the enforcement of revolutionary Supreme Court mandates, and we had finally come to terms with the abomination of racial injustice by passing the Civil Rights Act.

  • Individual Differences and Disabilities [Edit] an Example of an Item from A
    Individual differences and disabilities [edit] An example of an item from a cognitive abilities test Each person has an individual profile of characteristics, abilities and challenges that result from predisposition, learning and development. These manifest as individual differences in intelligence, creativity, cognitive style, motivation and the capacity to process information, communicate, and relate to others. The most prevalent disabilities found among school age children are attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), learning disability, dyslexia, and speech disorder. Less common disabilities include mental retardation, hearing impairment, cerebral palsy, epilepsy, and blindness.[2] Although theories of intelligence have been discussed by philosophers since Plato, intelligence testing is an invention of educational psychology, and is coincident with the development of that discipline. Continuing debates about the nature of intelligence revolve on whether intelligence can be characterized by a single factor known as general intelligence,[8] multiple factors (e.g., Gardner's theory of multiple intelligences[9]), or whether it can be measured at all. In practice, standardized instruments such as the Stanford-Binet IQ test and the WISC[10] are widely used in economically developed countries to identify children in need of individualized educational treatment. Children classified as gifted are often provided with accelerated or enriched programs. Children with identified deficits may be provided with enhanced education in specific skills such as phonological awareness. In addition to basic abilities, the individual's personality traits are also important, with people higher in conscientiousness and hope attaining superior academic achievements, even after controlling for intelligence and past performance.[11] Learning and cognition [edit] Two fundamental assumptions that underlie formal education systems are that students (a) retain knowledge and skills they acquire in school, and (b) can apply them in situations outside the classroom.
